The Hebrew calendar is lunisolar: its months follow the moon, and a 13th month, Adar I, is added seven times in every 19 years so the holidays stay in their seasons. A Hebrew year begins in the autumn with Rosh Hashanah, on 1 Tishri.
Days begin at sundown, so every Jewish holiday starts on the evening before the date shown here. Years are counted from the traditional date of creation, so 1989 falls in the years 5749 and 5750.
